Dem Rep Schiff: Trump Engaging In ‘Questionable Activity,’ ‘Whether It Has a Clinical Diagnosis’ Is Up to Experts

On Monday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “MTP Daily,” Representative Adam Schiff (D-CA) stated that President Trump has engaged in “certainly questionable activity, whether it has a clinical diagnosis, I’ll leave to the experts.”

Schiff was asked if he has “concerns about the president’s mental health, and is that an appropriate question for Democrats or Republicans to be asking?”

He answered, “I’m not a mental health expert, but there does seem to be a pathological quality to the fact that he cannot accept facts that are adverse to him, and to give you the best illustration, the fact that he cannot accept Hillary Clinton won the popular vote. He has to invent millions of undocumented immigrants voting, the fact that he cannot accept that the Russians helped his campaign as to deny effectively what all of the intelligence agencies were telling him week after week. That does, I think, speak to a significant problem with this president. Now whether that has a clinical diagnosis or not, I’ll leave to the experts, but I think it is more than fair to point out that this is outside the range of what I consider either normal, acceptable, — certainly questionable activity, whether it has a clinical diagnosis, I’ll leave to the experts.”
